The April 22, 2026 SEAC minutes describe board implementation of the evidence‑based SNAP for Schools program, delivered by Student Support Counsellors to students aged 6–11. Sessions teach self‑regulation, emotional awareness, and problem‑solving through a structured curriculum aligned with the Health and Physical Education social‑emotional learning expectations, with data collection planned to evaluate impact. This indicates active investment in tiered mental health and behaviour supports and a willingness to adopt structured programs and supports for staff.While SNAP itself is a defined program, LDSB’s broader mental health work may benefit from complementary SEL curricula, digital tools, caregiver engagement resources, or outcome measurement platforms that integrate with current practice and help extend SEL learning beyond the classroom.

SNAP is being deployed in multiple elementary schools with classroom teacher collaboration; board is focusing on prevention and skill-building rather than punitive discipline alone.

Contract Admin

The gifted education policy says elementary gifted support is delivered by designated teachers or classroom teachers, and those staff receive a stipend under the negotiated collective bargaining agreement. It also says one teacher per grade and subject should be identified for case management and GIEP writing. This is a recurring staffing and stipend structure, not a new procurement. The commercial signal is ongoing need for gifted curriculum support and teacher case-management tools.
